they  had  a  population  of  20.6  millions,  or  22  per
cent  of  the  total  population  of  the  country.  They
had,  however,  397,776  postal  savings  depositors,
or  66  per  cent  of  the  total;  and  these  depositors
had  to  their  credit  57.3  millions  of  dollars,  or  67
per  cent  of  the  total  deposits.  Analyzing  the
figures  by  cities  and  limiting  ourselves  to  cities
